Syconic Cyber

Syconic Cyber is a Veteran owned managed security service provider delivering enterprise level protection, detection and response to micro, small and medium businesses. We are also proud to provide tailored consulting and advisory services to specialised cyber projects.

Launched in in 2020, Canberra start-up Syconic Cyber embraced the necessary hybrid workforce model to sustain operations through the pandemic, with employees working both remotely and on-site in Canberra, Sydney, Wollongong and Melbourne. Canberra was a natural choice for the location of Syconic's head office as it enables the team to continually connect with the veteran cyber community.

With over two decades in Defence as a technical specialist, Founder and Managing Director, Marcus Alexander, rounded out his military career by completing a Masters in Cyber Security. It was clear that cyber security was an industry in its infancy, and one that would encourage people to become lifelong learners as they attempted to keep up with, and get in front of, expanding technologies.

Cyber Security Expertise and Capability

Syconic's customer focus is on supporting Micro, Small and Medium businesses in all industries, especially those in sensitive industries such as Defence, Intelligence, Legal, and Healthcare communities. Most enterprise level products, which are those that provide the greatest protection, are aimed at enterprise sized organisations and this unfortunately makes them out of reach to the smaller players even though they require the same level of protection.

Syconic provides enterprise level security solutions to all sizes of organisations. They monitor for and protect from internal and outside threats to their environments, no matter the location or configuration of their environment. They have no minimum client size and no minimum order quantities. They specialise in the ‘Work From Anywhere’ business setup and can fluidly accommodate on-site, hybrid and remote workforces, providing assurance that their critical information, and that of their clients/customers, is secure and being monitored by a professional cyber security workforce.

"We are keen for our people to make their time with us as valuable as possible, to learn as much as they can as professionals. We want to be more than just an avenue to transition into, but somewhere to transition through - passing on the experiences we’ve learnt, offering opportunities for professional development and mentoring, moving individuals into industry to spread those experiences, and then have them back further developed.

"We’re also passionate about supporting veterans, about helping them realise how their skills transfer outside of the military and how incredibly valuable they are."
